Adding a .smi File to a .mov quicktime movie

I have an unsubbed Quicktime movie and both .smi and .srt files containing subs for the movie. How can I attach the subs in the .smi or .srt files to the .mov file? I also have the video in .mkv format, and used the application SmartConverter to change it into a quicktime movie. Is there a way to add the .smi or .srt file to the .mkv file then convert it into a quicktime movie or something?

Hi,
There is also a Myth buster from Paul Randal which says you do not need to keep tempdb data files equal to processor core
Myth-Tempdb data file should always have one data file per processor core
But if you read Microsoft blogs it would say you should have tempdb files  as per cores.
Tempdb best prctices
It all boils down to fact that are you facing issue with Tempdb. Does recommendation that tempdb data file equal to logical core always holds true, no it does not always that is what Paul Randal tried to show in his Article. You start with two data files
on different drive and monitor performance of Tempdb if you see PFA,GAM SGAM contention adding a data file would help. These recommendations generally hold true for huge OLTP environment where MS tested various features and your environment might not be same
as the one tested. Its a Good practice not an ideal. Ideal is one that suits your requirement and that would require a testing.
SQL Server tempddb Number of files a raw truth

  • How do i ADD a file type (such as Quicktime mov) that is NOT listed in the Content Type list?

    All the instructions I find when searching for how to ADD a file type just explain how to manage how Firefox handles that file type. And that is not possible when the file type is not in the list.

    Usually MOV is played by the QuickTime plugin. Some other plugins also may handle MOV. This is handled by entries in a hidden database, but you can view the contents if you type or paste about:plugins in the address bar and press Enter.
    In looking at your plugins list under "More System Details" I don't see QuickTime. Is it disabled (set to "never activate") on the Add-ons page? Missing?

  • Load an external .mov (quicktime movie hinted) file

    Hi guys!
    Sorry for the bad bad bad english ^_^'
    I have some .mov files that they are dynamic realizations
    (movie hinted). This movie files have the possibility to explore
    itself through mouse and keyboard.
    If the .mov file were a normal movie I would have resolved
    the problem. Problems are:
    - Flash doesn't recognize the "special" format (movie hinted)
    if I try to import it.
    - If I convert the .mov in a .flv it produces a static image
    and not an interactive movie as I want.
    - The mediaplayback component is limited to the use of the
    .flv, right?
    - The "loadMovie" string doesn't load the .mov.
    I'd try, maybe, all possibility. I don't know if exist a
    tutorial that explain how load .mov files in flash simply
    specifying a link.
    Can you help me? I use Flash MX 2004 Pro
    Thanks, bye

    Hello.
    This post was a very long time ago but I am having this
    problem now and I was wondering if you had any solutions?
    I have a 3D phone that my client wants to spin around so the
    consumer can see it from all sides. The .mov file works fine as it
    is but, apparently, you cannot use anything but .flv in Flash. Any
    help would be like gold and thank you in advance.

  • Quicktime movie - publishes a ghost file, placing on the page

    I have two questions.
    First - the ghost file
    I dragged a Quicktime movie file to a page and then published to a folder. I realised that I had attached a 27Mb file instead of a smaller file (750k) that I had meant to. I deleted the large file (select/delete) and dragged the new file on to the page and published to a new folder. However the large file keeps publishing even though I thought I had deleted it. I always end up with the large file and small file in the published folder. How can I stop this happening?
    Secondly - placing on a page
    The QT movie has an area above the control bar for a graphic which I didn't fill. How can I accurately place the QT file on the page so I can line it up with text - the graphic box seems to stop text flowing around it or placing it where I want it.
    Thanks

    I suspect your ISP is serving you an older "cached" file instead of the new "fresh" one. More common overseas than here in the U.S. and some ISP's are worse than others.
    Try "refreshing" the page (Command-R in your browser) to see if it now finds the new page.
    If that fails (and it may because these ISP's are so aggressive about caching) try adding a question mark (?) to the end of the address in your browser:
    apple.com becomes apple.com?

  • How do I combine separate audio and video files into one Quicktime movie?

    I have DVDs that contain separate audio and video files in folders marked Audio_TS and Video_TS. I would like to know how to combine these files into a single Quicktime movie. Is there inexpensive or shareware software that imports and unites these files reliably? A simple solution is preferred, rather than getting into complex media editing applications.
    G4 eMac   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Doug - the VOB files (in the VIDEO_TS folder) are MPEG-2 files. MPEG-2 have the video and audio mixed into the one file - there are no audio files to combine.
    The rest are directions to a DVD player (e.g. the BUP and IFO's) . The AUDIO_TS folder is used for DVD Audio discs and on video DVDs is always empty.
    Many people use Handbrake or iSquint to convert VOB to iPod video though MPEG Streamclip is the best - open the first numbered VOB and it will prompt you to open all of them. ALWAYS fix timecodes when it asks. You can then edit/trim and export to MPEG-4.

  • Quicktime movies with soundtrack

    When I save my Keynote presentation with a soundtrack as a Quicktime movie and then use the movie in IDVD the audio doesn't work. Also when you open the movie in Quicktime player and the movie is paused, the music continues to play.
    Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve these problems?
    Thanks,
    Rachel

    Its me...answering my own question, after hours of work I have solved the problem....
    When I put the QT movie (saved from Keynote) into IDVD it would preview alright but after burning it on to a DVD the audio was no longer there. Naturally, I suspected the separate sountrack.mov file as the cause of this problem.
    The only way I could get it to work was pretty convoluted but nevertheless, worked in the end. This is what I did. I completed my presentation in Keynote. I exported it as a QTmovie with no soundtrack at all. I then opened the QTmovie in Quicktime Pro (you have to have QT Pro) and then "added" the audio file and resaved the QT movie. The instructions for adding audio are pretty clear in the "help" section for QT Pro. Then once I brought the movie into IDVD and burned the DVD it worked perfectly!

  • Resizing Quicktime Movies for use in iWeb + published to .mac

    Hey everyone,
    I have some home movies I want to post on my .mac website but the files are just too big. The movies are already in Quicktime format from my camera. It just takes forever to upload and forever to download when you view the site.
    How do I go about dropping the file size of my quicktime movies? Any suggestions should be helpful.
    Thanks

    Smart move to get QT Pro! It will now be possible to do this:
    When exporting From iMovie or Final Cut, the expert settings choices can be daunting to understand. Here's a simple solution. Whenever you find a QT video online that has the download arrow (down facing arrow) at the far right of the play time line and you're impressed by the quality you see, once the movie has fully loaded, click on that arrow.
    With QT Pro you'll see a drop down menu appear that offers 'Save as Source' or 'Save as QuickTime Movie'. Usually either choice gives you the same type of file. Save to your desktop . Then open and play. As the movie plays, go to the Quicktime menu at the top of your screen and choose from 'Window' ...Show Movie Info. Eureka! There are almost all the settings used to create that movie
    To keep a photo record of this movies settings (if you don't keep the movie) line the player and the info window side to side and do a Apple key+Shift +4 targeted picture snap. Store the pic you just created in an iPhoto folder labeled 'QT Info Pics' as a later reference. In fact, Apple key+ Shift + 4 (targeted) or Apple key + Shift + 3 (Full Screen capture) used with 'Get Info' windows and iPhoto storage is a great quick & easy record keeping system.
    Have fun!
    Wayne
    PS Been to Memphis, loved it. Irmla Thomas has a great CD called My Heart's In Memphis
    PSS Once dragged to an iWeb page you can alter the physical size (reasonable amount) of your movie while file size stays the same.

  • Saving quicktime movies from internet

    i used to be able to choose file,save as & whatever quicktime movie i had viewed & chose to save would end up in the proper place. now, i go through all the same steps & the movie/file gets saved but when i try & open i get an ALERT:
    QuickTime cannot open the file: "01.mpeg"
    it is not a file that QuickTime understands (-2048).
    is there an easy way to save movies from the web anymore?

    i didnt need it before. i think it all changed the last QT update i ran. HELP feature said to ckick down button on player, did that & yeah, it looks like it leads me to a purchasing link. thanks for your time. i guess all i can do is save as a bookmark & wait for it to load when i want it.

  • Safari 6.1 on MacOS 10.8.5 not play quicktime movies

    Trying to view quicktime movies in Safari brings up the Quicktime Q graphic with a big question mark. Safari->Help-> Installed Plug-Ins includes:
    QuickTime Plug-in 7.7.1
    The QuickTime Plugin allows you to view a wide variety of multimedia content in web pages. For more information, visit the QuickTime Web site. — from file “QuickTime Plugin.plugin”.
    in the list of plug ins and the /Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder does have the file "QuickTime Plugin.plugin".
    I have tried downloading the older Quicktime Player 7.app and then rebooting the computer and I still cannot view the Quicktime movies in Safari. I can view the quicktime movies in Firefox (version 24.0).
    I have also deleted the items in the Library folder:
    Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Preferences/com.apple.quicktime.plugin.preferences.plist
    Preferences/QuickTime Preferences
    rebooting and relaunching Safari all with negative results.
    All of these have been suggested by people in previous postings dating back to Fall 2012 or earlier, so I'm out of ideas.
    Is there anything else I should try?
    Running Safari 6.1 on Mac OS 10.8.5 on a MacBook Pro with Retina display.

    Well, this was on webpages I had created as lecture slides for my classes. I've just discovered that Safari acts differently if I view other websites than if I view webpages on my own computer's harddrive. If I put an example page on the webserver
    http://www2.bakersfieldcollege.edu/nstrobel/astronomy/s3test.htm
    and bring it up in Safari, I can see the quicktime movie in Safari.
    When I view the same webpage (s3test.htm) that has the quicktime movie embedded in it on my local harddrive, Safari displays the shaded Quicktime logo with the big question mark.
    Why Safari should care whether the webpage is on some webserver vs. having the same file and graphics on the local computer harddrive is beyond me.
    Since all of my lecture slides are webpages I have created, I'd like to know what hooks or coding I now need to put in the html to get Safari to display the movies in my lecture slide webpages on my local computer's harddrive.
    Here's the very simple html code for the s3test.htm file:
    ============
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Sun's Interior</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <h2>The Sun is entirely hot gas all the way to the center.</h2>
    <center>
      <embed src="circS10.mov" width="640" height="500" loop="true"></embed>
    </center>
    <H2>Interior</H2>
    <UL>
              <LI>
                <h3>Core: 16 million K and density 20 times greater than iron but still gaseous!
                  Energy generated here in the innermost 10% of the Sun's mass.
          </h3>
              <LI>
                <h3>Radiative Zone:
          Photons carry energy outward. About 85% of the Sun's radius.</h3>
              <LI>
                <h3>Convection Zone: Photons blocked, so huge chunks of gas carry energy outward to surface. Outer 15% of
    the Sun's radius.</h3>
              <LI>
                <h3><em>Photosphere: </em>here the photons finally escape to space. The part we see. Only 500 kilometers thick.
    About 5840 K.</h3>   
    </UL>
    </body>
    </html>
    ===========
    That code works just fine if I put the s3test.htm + circS10.mov quicktime movie files on the www2.bakersfieldcollege.edu webserver (or any other webserver), but it does not work if the files are on my local harddrive. Firefox works fine either way.

  • Is there a Quicktime movie Jukebox plugin or software option available?

    I currently air television programing on my commercial cable channel by using a Mac in my studio playing a single eight hour full quality quicktime movie file in full screen loop. The video and audio are then feed to a single slingbox in the office. The sling box is programed for remote viewing and is picked by another Mac at the cable company header. That computer then feeds the full screen quicktime video and audio into the cable company modulator, which broadcast the looped full quality quicktime that is running in loop at the studio.
    PROBLEM - In order to update and revise footage I have to create another 70 GB full quality quicktime file with the new content. If I were able to create mutipule smaller individual full quality quicktime files and play them thru a juke box solution with loop I could then just replace the individual smaller quicktime program files individually without having to crate a complete new huge full quality quicktime file. Bottom line is there a way to duplicate the iTune random and loop play found for audio files in itunes for Quicktime Movies. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    You'll need this plugin.

  • Why can't I import quicktime .mov movies into iMovie 08?

    I exported my iPhoto slideshow to a .mov quicktime movie and tried to import it into iMovie 08 and couldn't. It won't drag in, and it is greyed out if I try to go File>Import Movie. I thought iMovie 08 could support quicktime movies!
    Thx

    I tried converting my .mov file that I created in iPhoto into a MPEG-4 using MPEG Streamclip as suggested.
    Thanks for posting. My original post was not to address conversion of an iPhoto slideshow in MPEG Streamclip, but rather its saving in an MP4 container in order to strip the "Tween" track that iMovie '08 doesn't like. However, while reviewing your comment, I noted that the iPhoto slideshow export options have changed and no longer offers the "full animation MPEG-4/AAC" compression format. Unfortunately, my original post is now outdated, so here is an update:
    1) The best approach is still to use QT Pro if you have it. I too the morning off and created a quickie tutorial which demonstrates how you can do this. CLICK HERE TO VIEW
    2) Since you seem to be having problems with MPEG Streamclip when making conversions, I also put together a secondary quickie tutorial demonstrating how GarageBand can be used to make your iPhoto slideshow iMovie '08 compatible if you don't have QT Pro. CLICK HERE TO VIEW

  • How to Export a Quicktime Movie Reference?

    I'm looking to export a quicktime reference movie that I can bring into Soundtrack Pro. I tried quicktime movie and didn't select "self-contained". I didn't see a 'reference movie' option. My timeline is a bit over an hour long. It has the 10-bit PAL sequence preset. It took around 20 minutes to make the file. The final "quicktime movie" (reference?) was 5.5 GIGABYTES (GB) in size!!! The entire timeline was already rendered out.
    What am I doing wrong? I thought QT Reference Files were suposed to be tiny.

    I'm also having an issue with QT Ref files this morning, and didn't think it would be prudent to start a new thread. I have searched though, and don't think this has been answered elsewhere.
    I'm working on a simple timeline...I built a sequence in After Effects and exported it as a DV/NTSC sequence for use in FCP. I've synced it up with an audio track (AIFF 48khz) and am trying to export various versions of it. The first one I did was a simple QT Ref movie. It looks exactly right. When I get info on this file, it says the codec is H.264, which is weird considering the source file and timeline setting is DV/NTSC.
    I made a minor edit and attempted to just export a version using Sorenson 3 w/Compressor. Wasn't happy with the results, so I tried to export a new QT Ref of the edited timeline and was going to use this in Cleaner. The new ref file's get info says it was encoded as DV/NTSC (which makes sense), but it looks terrible. I wonder if this has anything to do with my use of Compressor in between. There's nothing to render since its only native DV and AIFF, but just for good measure I've done Sequence>Render All and same results.
    Any thoughts on this? Thanks in advance. Off to toss my prefs....
    EDIT: after tossing QT and FCP Prefs, no luck. When I export, it doesn't even go through the process (its only a ~:30 piece so its not that long anyway) of exporting. It flashes for a second, and the file (severely compressed) is at the destination folder.

  • How to view Quicktime movie on iPad

    Hi,
    I have the most recent iPad Air. Yesterday I took a video with my iPhone 4S. I emailed it to myself and some others, straight from the photos app. They were able to open it up on their computers. My iPad won't play it. When I click on the attachment, it just displays a grey screen saying "Video.MOV QuickTime Movie."
    I searched and others with this problem seemed to have an issue playing other formats like WMV. This is straight from an iPhone. So I can't imagine the iPad should need a third party app for this. What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks!
